The essence of trading enlightenment! I have thoroughly grasped the ultimate principles of left and right side trading.
After 7 years of trading and stepping into countless pitfalls, I finally understood the essence of left and right side trading: it is not about stubbornly sticking to one side but doing left side things on the right side and right side things on the left side!
When I first entered the circle, I was just a pure 'left side barbarian.' When I saw the target drop, I thought it was the bottom and blindly bought in, only to be deeply trapped every time; later, I followed the trend to do the right side, waiting for the trend to become clear before entering, but I always ended up buying halfway up the mountain, making a little money only to be washed out, repeatedly losing quite a bit.
It wasn't until I saw this sentence, combined with my seven years of trading practical review, that I suddenly opened up my understanding.
✅ Try to lean right in left-side trading
The left side itself is about predicting bottoms/tops, with maximum uncertainty. I used to buy the dip at the beginning of a decline; now I wait for the downtrend to slow down, for signs of a stop in the decline, and for volume exhaustion before entering, which is equivalent to finding certain right-leaning nodes within the left side, effectively doubling the margin for error.
✅ Try to lean left in right-side trading
After the right-side trend forms, don't wait until it has risen significantly to chase! I now build positions during the early confirmation of a trend (for example, when breaking through key resistance levels during pullbacks), which allows me to secure low costs while avoiding being trapped by chasing high prices. This is finding left-leaning opportunity points within the right side.
To put it simply, the left side seeks stability, relying on right-side signals to reduce risk; the right side seeks profit, relying on left-side timing to manage costs. I've used this strategy for over half a year, whether trading in segments or mid-short term, the win rate and profit space have visibly improved, and I am no longer the novice who relied on gut feelings to gamble on price movements.
Trading has never been black and white; learning to flexibly switch between left and right-brain thinking is the key to stable profits～#加密市场观察 $BNB
